Acid etched cavities are filled with enamel colors, one at a time. This is done via a syringe.

The product is oven-fired.

It is then cut into individual pins, and polished.

Benefits of Photo Etched Pins

Photo Etched Pins are perfect for highly complex designs(without shadows or gradients). They also come with a wide range of available color selections. Additionally,Photo Etched pins weigh less than other types of pins because they are made thinner. This can be a benefit for larger pin designs! Alternatively, if you wish to add shadows or gradients to your design, we suggest looking into offset printed pins.
